Sorry, Alex; "A Forest" (indeed, "17 Seconds") stamps on anything The Cure have ever released. The sound is sublime. It's like a winter's day, or the very last kiss form your soon-to-be ex-girlfriend. It's pure ice, and it's beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bespin 8,472 Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 My Paris A New Musical A new musical about the life and times of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, the artist who captured the gaiety, color and heartbreak of Montmartre, Le Can-Can and the world of Le Moulin Rouge. Inhabited by the colorful people he painted, it’s the story of a great artist who loved a world that never quite loved him back. Music and lyrics are by legendary French performer Charles Aznavour. The book is by Oscar, Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winner Alfred Uhry with English lyrics and musical adaptation by Tony-winner Jason Robert Brown. Tony-winning director/choreographer Kathleen Marshall brings it all to whirling, spinning and sassy life. C’est magnifique!

Marian Schedenig 8,154 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Saw Muse live for the 2nd time yesterday. Really spectacular show (I've never seen Pink Floyd live*, but their stagings can't have been more megalomaniac than this). I'd gladly give up some "atmosphere" for better acoustics though. *) Up next: David Gilmour in June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,266 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I saw Muse in concert during the 2nd Law tour, it was one of the best concerts I've been to! They put on a hell of a great show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,154 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Yes, that's when I saw them first. But the staging of that tour was nothing compared to their current setup with (balloon) drones flying across the hall and semitransparent projection screens with live effects in various configurations. Apparently it looks even better from the seating area: It also helps that after originally finding the new album inconspicuous and revising that to quite good after a few listens, a break of a couple of months has vastly improved it and I now classify it as really good. They played a lot from Black Holes and Revelations in particular, too - 6 songs I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,266 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Yea when I saw them on the 2nd Law tour, they mostly played songs from 2nd Law and old stuff; I think they only played 1-2 songs from The Resistance! (Which was a bummer for me as The Resistance is the album that got me into them and I love the whole thing). Honestly the lead single for Drones disappointed me so much that I haven't even bothered to listen to the album yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,154 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Give it a try. It takes a few listens, but it's worth it (at least for me, and some friends have had a similar experience). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo 3,709 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I saw Muse at a festival a few years back and genuinely thought Kasabian blew them off stage. Muse were all about the theatricality and the laser show but Kasabian had more energy and a better batch of songs. I love the first three and a half Muse albums but I dislike anything after that so that probably had an impact. Muse didn't have anything that got the crowd as pumped as Fire.

Jay 37,266 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 For me Absolution, Black Holes, Resistance, and 2nd Law are the best Muse albums. I can barely tell you what any of their pre-Absolution material is like, and still haven't checked out their new one. But those four albums are ridiculously solid.

Bilbo 3,709 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Origin of Symetry is their best IMO. The first one is really good too but it sounds a bit more Radioheadish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,266 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I know I've listened to them on spotify, but I don't own them on CD like I do the four I mentioned. For sure, sometime soon I'll give them a more earnest listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
